As the UK marks Armed Forces Week (23-30 June), we thought we’d share the deeply personal reasons why Jiggle is proud to have signed the Armed Forces Covenant.
Jiggle’s founders grew up hearing stories of resilience, service, and sacrifice from their grandparents, who served in the armed forces. Listening to these stories has shaped the way the Jiggle operates, with the values of discipline, loyalty, and teamwork built into our company ethos and running through everything we do.
Our family’s legacy means we understand that although military service builds a foundation of strength and character, the journey back into civilian life isn’t always easy. Like many veterans, our family members have faced challenges finding out where they fit after service. Rebuilding life as a civilian can be a huge adjustment, and rediscovering careers, community, identity takes time, understanding, and support.
That’s why Jiggle signed the Armed Forces Covenant. It’s not about politics. It’s not about charity. It’s about recognising service, demonstrating respect and showing appreciation bymaking a practical commitment: to recruit, support, and uplift armed forces personnel and their families—especially as they transition into civilian life.
At Jiggle, not only do we understand the the skills veterans bring and the benefits to business, but we’re also invested in giving back. We’re serious about hiring more people with service backgrounds, working with employers who support Reservists, and helping families impacted by military life. And as a recruitment agency, we’ve made it part of our mission to increase awareness amongst the wider business community of the huge advantages of including ex-service personnel in their teams.
If you’ve served or supported someone who has, we see you. We honour your experience. And we want to help you find your next chapter.

The Armed Forces Covenant is a promise by the nation ensuring that those who serve or have served in the Armed Forces, and their families, are treated fairly.
